"Very enjoyable"

I got those in promotion and didn’t expect much, but let me tell you. I was pleasantly surprised. Well balanced flavors, good burn time and excellent flow. I will be buying more for sure.

"Excellent Cigar and Value--But be patient and wait"

This is a superbly planned and executed maduro cigar. It is tight and firm but draws well. It is magnificently built and holds together and burns evenly. It is rich and full but not bitter or harsh. It is slow burning but stays lit. Now the warning: let it sit in your properly maintained humidor for at least a month or two if you can manage inventory that well. This cigar helps you learn to be patient and that great cigars need to be properly hydrated and usually rehydrated but never over-hydrated. If you do not have a humidor, get one. A simple one will do. It is not difficult or tricky, but it requires a little discipline and patience, but the reward is real. Like all life, a little discipline and work makes the moments of rest and pleasure richer. Enjoy.

"Ole Blue"

A wonderful 601 cigar, one of my favourites. Well constructed and box pressed, the taste is robust and does not degrade into harshness near the end.

"Great smoke"

Got these in a sampler and I will get then again. Great taste, burn and Smokey as hell.

"Different from when I first smoked em years ago"

Not nearly as good as when 1st released. The wrapper is definitely different; veiny, uneven burn, taste only so so . Not my favorite N E more. And definitely better out there for the money !

"Let them age"

I agree with last reviewer,took one right out of the bag and tried it....not to impressed.I let them age in my humidor for 2 weeks and what a change,real smooth with nutty and creamy undertones with a cocoa after taste towards the last third of the cigar. A staple in my humidor rotation.

"Let them sit for awhile"

I won these at an auction and fired one up as soon as I received them. Man was I disappointed. The thing tasted just like dirt. I placed the remainder in the humi and let them sit for a couple of weeks and .... WOW, WHAT A GREAT SMOKE. Lots of smoke, smooth taste and an even burn. Go ahead and get yourself some but, LET THEM SIT FOR AT LEAST A COUPLE OF WEEKS. You'll be glad you did.

"One of the best"

Very good smoke! Excellent construction, smooth draw, and even burn. Sweet smoke, with a creamy taste.

"Surprisingly Good"

I was impressed with this smoke. First time I smoked it and the taste was great... I prefer a full bodied smoke and this delivered. It is well constructed and can hold a great ash. The ending was a bit rough because my tip was wet but other than that I'm a fan. I will order a box today.

"One Word: Disgusting"

Sorry guys, and I know all tastes are personal, BUT out of the wrapper, this stick looks like dirt, feels like dirt, and tastes like dirt. It was harsh from the moment I placed it in my mouth all the way through the first 2 inches until it got snubbed. The Green and Red are fine cigars but the Blue?...never again.
